LIMITED WARRANTY When Does Warranty Coverage Begin? Warranty coverage begins on the installation date. The installation date is one of three dates depending on the circumstances of purchase: (1) For units installed in a newly constructed residence, the installation date is the date the owner purchases the residence from the builder. (2) For units installed in existing residences, the installation date is the date that the unit is originally installed. (3) If the date the owner purchases the residence from the builder or the date the unit is originally installed cannot be verified, the installation date is three months after the manufacture date. The first four digits of the serial number (YYMM) on the unit indicate the manufacture date. For example, a serial number beginning with 1306 indicates the unit was manufactured in June 2013. How Long Does Warranty Coverage Last? Registration is not required to obtain warranty coverage, but registration affects the length of the warranty. If the unit is not registered, the warranty lasts for a period up to 5 YEARS. If the unit is properly registered online within 60 days after the installation date, the warranty lasts for as long as the original registered owner or his or her spouse ( registered owner ) own and reside in the home in which the unit was originally installed, for a period up to 10 YEARS. TO REGISTER, GO TO WWW.GOODMANMFG.COM AND CLICK PRODUCT REGISTRATION. If you are a California or Quebec resident, please refer to the California And Quebec Residents section below. Neither of these warranty periods continues after the unit is removed from the location where it was originally installed. The replacement of a part under this warranty does not extend the warranty period. In other words, Goodman warrants a replacement part only for the period remaining in the applicable warranty that commenced on the installation date. What Will Goodman Do To Correct Problems? Goodman will furnish a replacement part, without charge for the part only, to replace any part that is found to be defective due to workmanship or materials under normal use and maintenance. Furnishing of the replacement part is Goodman s only responsibility under this warranty and the furnishing of the replacement part is the owner s only remedy. THE OWNER AGREES THAT THESE REMEDIES ARE THE OWNER S EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES FOR BREACH OF ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. What Won t Goodman Do To Correct Problems? Goodman will not pay for: Labor, freight, or any other cost associated with the service, repair, or operation of the unit. Electricity or fuel costs, or increases in electricity or fuel costs, for any reason, including additional or unusual use of supplemental electric heat. Lodging or transportation charges. Refrigerant. WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS BASED ON NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR OTHER BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, NEITHER GOODMAN NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES SHALL IN ANY EVENT BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF USE OF A UNIT, EXTRA UTILITY EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES TO PROPERTY. Some states and provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. How Can The Owner Receive Warranty Service?

To receive a replacement part, a licensed contractor must bring the defective part to a Goodman heating and air conditioning products distributor.
